As my third read by this author, and my second 5 ⭐️ review for her, Jescie is officially secured as one of my favorites!

This was a dark romance MASTERPIECE. We've got all the goodies; dual POV, a possessive stalker, filthy steam and aftercare 👏, and some decent twists and reveals. This book gives a nod to the monsters hiding in plain sight, oftentimes hiding behind religion.

4.5

Overall Rating: 4.5 ⭐️
Narration: 5 ⭐️
Spice: 🌶️🌶️🌶️🌶️.5/5

5 ⭐️ for the narration - they both did amazing, but Joe Arden just went above and beyond! When Aero went on his psychotic rants - Joe really brought the character to life. You could feel the crazy coming through your headphones.

4 ⭐️ for the plot. Deeply dark and disturbing, but I ate this book up! Definitely check TWs on this because it’s A LOT. The plot got lost with all the spice towards the middle but it picked back up and I actually liked the premise of the story. Cults have always fascinated me, and I loved Briony’s journey to learning the truth and stepping into her power.

4.5 🌶️ for the spice. Holyyyy was it spicy and it was good spice too. Aero was so unhinged, some of the things he would say were just like what the actual F. He’s def not sweet in the sheets (lots of degradation/humiliation) so again check TWs. Oh and did I mention his 🍆 is pierced? There are a few scenes that will leave rent free in my head 🙃.

I 1000% recommend listening on audio. You won’t regret it!

The story itself is good & kept me invested & waiting to see what happens next but the reason that I'm DNF this book for now is because of Aero's unhinged behavior. I know he's the Anti hero/villain MMC but I don't like he forcely stalking the FMC Briony, attacking her, all in her personal space, & forcing Briony to have oral sex. Will I reread this book again in the future?? Yes, the story part is good & kept me invested. Also this stalker romance book is very dark with serious content trigger warnings so please check them out before reading. If I reread this book again & feel the same way, then this book is not for me. I have nothing against the author but I will be checking out her other books.
